The official blog for the YouTube Dippers

Post navigation

Over the past few months, the once thriving Facebook page, “YouTube Dippers”, has taken a drastic decrease in the number of people who are active with the page. I’m currently working on new ways to increase activity, and it’s helping bring back a small number of people commenting and liking our post. However, it’s still not at the number that we would like to see. Thus, we are coming to our fans for their opinions on how we can make the Facebook page better.

So, we want to know what you would be interested in seeing on our page. What do you think would make it a more user-based page that allows our fans to be more interactive? Please feel free to Email us with your suggestions >> ytdpartnership@outlook.com.

For the remainder of 2013, here is a short calender of things you can expect from us:

October 5th: I, the owner/CEO, will be doing a live broadcast that all of our users will be able to attend and ask us questions, suggest changes that we should make, and a bunch of other activities.

October 26th: Our product specialist are currently working on wristband ideas for our fans/YouTube Dippers. October 26, 2013 is the preplanned day that we will release information about the wristbands – such as cost, colors, design, etc.. – and they will be posted for sale a couple of weeks later.

November 16th: Another live show with the CEO that will allow you to ask questions, suggest changes that we should make, product ideas, design ideas, etc..

December 15th: I’m going to email a few different companies – like MudJug and Spitbud – to try and set up a couple of things with them that will allow our users to receive discounts on their items just in time for the Christmas season.

**Please check this website often. Event dates may be added or removed at any time – we will make an announcement if/when happens.

I’ve been thinking of a few contest/giveaway ideas for our followers/likers. An idea that came to me last night was for me to contact the founders of SpitBud and to see if they would be interested in possibly hosting a contest where one (1) lucky person wins a free SpitBud.

If you would be interested, please send us an email @ DippersUpdate@outlook.com

It seems like our very own Outlawdipper has decided to become a musician. Over the past few months, he has released a few great songs that he has never been reluctant to post. Four months ago, he released “Backwoods Badass”, a year ago was the release of “Wild Boy”, and now, just a day ago, he released his newest song, “She Looks Better After Every Beer”. You can check out the new song below.

I’m sorry about the hiatus that I’ve been on. I’ve just been busy with registering for school and stuff.

I’m sure we all fell under the rumor that Copenhagen Mint was real and coming out soon. But then, obviously a rumor that was unknown to us, came out saying that Copenhagen Mint is fake and will not be coming out in the near future. Well, it seems to me like the second rumor was false this time. That’s right. Copenhagen Mint has released the new flavor of mint. And who could you else could you think would do the first review of it? That’s it! Outlawdipper. Check it out below.

It’s almost that time of year where the summer is coming to an end. And… well… so is your time off from school. A lot of us like to go “Back-to-school” shopping (or our mothers do, at least) before the new school year begins. But for the past several years, we have all been going to the same ‘ole stores again and again, year after year. While they may carry the specific brand(s) of clothing that we enjoy, they don’t carry smokeless tobacco related clothing, right? I’ve came up with a few suggestions of online stores that you can visit if you would like to buy shirts (and other accessories) that are associated with smokeless tobacco and very popular among the Dip Brotherhood (DBH).

1.) REDNECK NATION CLOTHING COMPANY (RNCC)

RNCC is the leading clothing store within the DBH for the simple fact that they carry the kind of clothing and accessories we want. Whether you’re a Redneck Diva or a Mud Hole King, RNCC has you covered. You can shop in seven (7) different stores within ONE (1) website!

Although the MudJug is the number one (1) item that people go to MudJug.com to shop for, they also feature a MudJug apparel store. If you are a big fan of MudJug portable spittoons, then the MudJug apparel store is something you MUST visit to show your MudJug and DBH pride!

Want a MudJug wrist band or MudJug sticker? They have those in stock also! Along with a few other accessories.

Snuff Skins are cases that go on your dip can to stop the drying out of your dip. Not only does their website feature a vast majority of different Snuff Skin can options, but they also have a small apparel store. So if you want to show your Snuff Skin pride, I suggest buying one of their shirts!

That is the message Brad Rodu, D.D.S., professor of medicine at the University of Louisville (UofL) School of Medicine and the Endowed Chair in Tobacco Harm Reduction at UofL’s James Graham Brown Cancer Center, delivered at the Annual Meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science Feb. 18. Rodu spoke at the session, “Harm Reduction: Policy Change to Reduce the Global Toll of Smoking-Related Disease.”

“Quit or die: That’s been the brutal message delivered to 45 million American smokers, and it has helped contribute to 443,000 deaths per year, according to statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,” Rodu said. “The truth, however, is that total nicotine and tobacco abstinence is unattainable and unnecessary for many smokers.”

Rodu’s presentation, “Transforming Tobacco Use: The Potential of Tobacco Harm Reduction,” was based on his almost 20 years of research. His work shows that smokers can greatly reduce their risk of disease and death by replacing smoking products with e-cigarettes or modern, spit-free smokeless tobacco. These products provide a much safer alternative for those smokers who are unable or unwilling to quit smoking because they continue to deliver nicotine without the harmful effect of smoking.

“Nicotine is addictive, but it is not the cause of any smoking-related disease. Like caffeine, nicotine can be used safely by consumers,” Rodu said.

Decades of epidemiologic research bear out Rodu’s findings. While no tobacco product is completely safe, smokeless products have been shown to be 98 percent safer than cigarettes. In the United Kingdom, the Royal College of Physicians reported in 2002 that smokeless tobacco is up to 1,000 times less hazardous than smoking, and in 2007, further urged world governments to seriously consider instituting tobacco harm reduction strategies as a means to save lives.

To see the proof of what tobacco harm reduction can do, look to Sweden, Rodu said. “Over the past 50 years, Swedish men have had Europe’s highest per capita consumption of smokeless tobacco as well as Europe’s lowest cigarette use. During the same time, they also have the lowest rate of lung cancer than men in any other European country.”

In the United States., steps have been made to document the value of tobacco harm reduction. In 2006, a National Cancer Institute-funded study estimated that if tobacco harm reduction was “responsibly communicated” to smokers, 4 million would switch to smokeless tobacco. The American Council on Science and Health — which organized Rodu’s session at the AAAS Annual Meeting — concluded in the same year that tobacco harm reduction “shows great potential as a public health strategy to help millions of smokers.”

Rodu is well aware of the controversy his research findings generate. Opponents of any use of nicotine delivery products maintain that smokeless tobacco puts the user at great risk for oral cancer, a position not supported by research.

As YouTube Dippers, or maybe you are just part of the brotherhood, most of us (if not all) are familiar with the clothing line, popular among dippers, Redneck Nation Clothing Co. However, some of you may not be as familiar with it as the rest of us, which is why I decided to write a blog post about it.

When visiting the Redneck Nation Co. website, you will notice there are several different clothing/accessory brand options that you can chose from:

We are all familiar with the fellow dipper, GrizzlyMan10193. I absolutely LOVE his videos, even after all of the drama. His grandparents are the stars of this video he posted on July 14, 2013 and they make it quite funny. When his grandfather can’t seem to make his order without being told to hold, he gets pretty irritated and decides to go inside. Watch the video below to see what happens next:
